The temperature of a gas is raised while its volume remains constant, the pressure exerted by the gas on the walls of the container increases because its molecules

a
loose more kinetic energy to the wall
b
are in contact with the wall for a shorter time
c
strike the wall more often with higher velocities
d
collide with each other with less frequency

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Due to increase in temperature root-mean-square velocity of gas molecules increases. So they strike the wall more often with higher velocity.
